Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was interviewed on campus at my school. It was all behavioral questions and some questions about my resume and specific experience.

It went very well, and the interviewer said he thought I'd be a great fit, but I was not given another interview because my 2.9 GPA didn't meet TI's strict 3.0 minimum.

I'm not sure why they gave me an interview in the first place.
